how to drag vlookup in vba for all the cells down
I have written

Cells(4, Newcolumn).Formula = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(Range("A4"), Sheets("Basic_Data").Range("C2:J7129"), 8, False)

Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Cells(newrange & ":" & r & "7129")
Range(newrange & ":" & r & "7129").Select

but this is copying only values not formula. I need to use dynamic range

use this instead:

Range(newrange & ":" & r & "7129").FormulaR1C1 = "=VLOOKUP(RC1,Basic_Data!R2C3:R7129C10,8,0)"

now, if you want the 7129 to be dynamic, you could count the number of items on column C...
dim lngItems as Long
lngItems = application.worksheetfunctions.counta(Sheets("Basic_Data").Range("C1:C65000"))
Range(newrange & ":" & r & lngItems).FormulaR1C1 = "=VLOOKUP(RC1,Basic_Data!R2C3:R" & lngItems & "C10,8,0)"

here is another 2 ways to find the last rows

Sub Macro1()
Dim i As Integer
    
    i = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
 
    MsgBox i
    
End Sub


Sub macro2()
Dim i As Integer
    i = Range("C65536").End(xlUp).Row
    MsgBox i

End Sub
